About Maureen

Maureen Mccullum is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Pennsylvania with 15 years of experience. She focuses on concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief, parenting stress, ADHD, and family-related problems. Maureen also addresses trauma, emotional dysregulation, and end-of-life issues.

Maureen uses straightforward conversation to help people clarify what matters to them. She draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to examine thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices to help people notice what they value and take small steps in that direction.

Her sessions are client-centered in tone, which means she listens first and adapts the discussion to each person. She mixes practical strategies with reflective moments so people can try new ways of coping between meetings. Motivational interviewing shows up when people are weighing change and need help deciding what to try next.

Maureen pays attention to everyday pressures young adults face, like job stress, identity questions, and managing relationships while figuring out independence. She helps people talk through career concerns, anger, addictive behaviors, and body image worries in plain language and manageable steps.

She also supports caregivers and those dealing with chronic illness or disability, helping them set boundaries and handle caregiver stress. For people affected by autism or intellectual disability in themselves or a family member, she aims to make sessions practical and clear.

To begin, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Maureen’s approaches fit into online work

Maureen draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take small actions toward them. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions where someone wants clearer direction.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by giving concrete tools to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maureen will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to use based on goals, needs, and what feels doable. That means trying techniques, checking how they fit, and adjusting the plan together.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone keep a regular appointment during school terms, work shifts, or caregiving periods without needing to rearrange the whole day.
